I'm sorry I missed a celebratory reading at BookCourt tonight, to showcase the Best New Poets of 2012. I was happy to see Dan Meltz has been chosen as one of the poets, and was one of the readers. I worked with Dan at Columbia University Press many years ago & he was the best kind of co-worker - smart, well-read, talky, funny, gossipy, self-effacing. And a wonderful writer. Dan, I remember some of your stories back then, & the old Upper West Side SRO days. Congratulations!
